Don't See You Strange

from Who Said It Had To Be Fun? (fdm141) by Chris Anderson

/

lyrics

driven to the end of the line
a path to hold the need
a need for a new ruler
a need for a new creed
once i kissed the hand of a goddess
then she sent me on my way
i never felt such a sense of mercy
buried in the light of one sun ray

well, what do you know?
i am only one
don't know this
got to change
don't understand
don't see you strange

taken to a point beyond
a pathway to the sky
the meaning of the universe
is a fact that we deny
thou shalt bring you down
a face carved into stone
a thousand pardons
for my conscience
i thought i was all alone

well, what do you know?
desperation sentence
someday this will all change
don't understand
don't see you strange

two souls alone
which one holds the dream?
dawn will rise to shade
together alone

lead me through the shadows
a whisper in a mind
a faint cast of photocopies
they are falling in behind
bring order to the universe
in the dying hand of one god
with his visions of syncopation
on the universal nod

well, what do you know?
we're only human
mindless souls asleep
together we all change
it's not that i don't understand
i just that i don't see you strange
